Cherish

This is one of those layouts that I had horrible pictures for but I couldn't make myself skip this fun event! My daughters' had a sleep over for their last birthday and one of the girls just was crazy about our new dog, Bongo. So they decided to have a wedding with her and Bongo! I even got a picture of the kiss (ICK!)

I used some paper I had been given (the circle paper) as the basis for the color scheme and then went from there. Since it was about love I found the heart over lay on the Artbooking cartridge and cut it twice for the focal point in the center!

I used a heart word bubble for my journaling and a couple other hearts on the right side for more emphasis on the the love theme and a place for the date! The title was given to me with the paper and was a rub on with a few choice love words that I placed around the title.

Part of what I want to emphasize here is the the overlay was from a mini album page and rather than cutting it at the size suggested I cut it at 11 inches so it would be proportioned right for a 12x12 page. Just because some shape or title is on a mini album page doesn't mean you can't use it on a full page and vice versa!
